This film with Edward G. Robinson in the title role is a power- ful drama of the notorious under- world of a certain great Americar city, with all the actual trimmings and miscellaneous killings which play @ part in those circles of society. Edward G. Robinson, known for other magnificent gangster char- acterizations, gives a splendid per- formance, playing the rode of Rico, “Little’ Caesar.” The story deals with the rapid and spectacular rise to crookdom leadership of this fiery individual. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., as @ pal of Rico's, really wishes to quit this life of crime and go back to cafe dancing with his partner, the charming Glenda Ferrell, with whom he is madly in love, but Rico stands in his way and will not per- mit his reformation. Ralph Ince enacts the role of Pete At the Movies _ ————+ ie their “Molls” and gives us Moniana, one of Rico’s rival rackét- cers, in mesterly style. - One of the highly effective scenes of the picture is a banquet given to Rico by his colleagues. This scene shows the gangsters in their glory ta idea of what a gunman's social life is like. - CAPITOL THEATRE In the supreme performance of a/| britliant career, Norma Talmadge, United Artists star, makes the glami- | crous, haunting personality of “Du Barry, Woman of Passion,” step alive from the shadows of the past to again enchant mankind. # Her portrayal of “Du Barry,” whose love life was the sensation of all France, enthralled those who attend- ed the Capitol theatre this afternoon. |. She gives piquancy and extraor- dinary charm to the lovely milliner who brought a nation to her feet, ruled a king, and lavished the gold of the country for her whims until the red shadow of revolution. swept her to disaster. Splendid performances are given by Conrad Nagel, as her soldier-lover, and William Farnum, as the king who tempted her with riches and power. This is Farnum’s first appearance on the screen since his retirement be- cause of illness at the height of his success several years ago, CAMERON SCORES BEER RACKETRERS Characterizes Al Capone, Chi- cago Beer Baron, as Evil Genius Characterizing Al Capone as an evil genius who is undermining the faith of the American people in re- publican government, Scott Cameron, Bismarck attorney, Monday spoke to members of the Lions club on the Chicago gangs and their methods of operation. The phenomenal success of the Chicago beer baron, can be attributed to his activities in\the beer racket, Cameron said. He cited figures to the effect that the Capone faction delivered 100,000 barrels of beer each week at a cost to themselves of three dollars a barrel and which is sold for $55 a barrel. The gross weekly reve- nue finding its way into the gang treasury runs over five millions, Cam- eron said, of which two millions is used as brik> money to keep city offi- cers and officials in line. Perhaps the only way of coping with this deplorable situation, Cam- eron suggested, would be to legalize the manufacture of 4 per cent beer. Legitimate brewers could then com- pete on a legal basis driving the racketeer into oblivion. Plans for a stag party to be given the evening of March 16 were dis- cussed and J. P. Spies was named charman of the committee on ar- Tangements. Visitors present at the luncheon were Scott Cameron, Bismarck; C. Morgan, Wolcott; Ole Nelson, J. Greitl, C. A.

Shafer’s rec- ommendation that a commission be created to ascertain the condition of the teachers’ insurance and retire- ment fund was approved by the North Dakota house Monday. The governor, in his recommenda- tion, called attention to the law en- acted by the last legislature for cre- ation of a commission of five persons to make an investigation of the fund. The law carried no appropriation and the governor found it difficult to find Persons willing to serve on the com- mission at their own expense. Governor Shafer asked the legisla- ture to re-enact the law and to pro- vide a small appropriation payable from the fund to pay necessary ex- penses. By a vote of 59 to 32, the house killed a measure providing for venti- lation in school house plans and for Specifications for school buildings.
